Please notify the school if your child is going to be late or absent from school by calling your school’s attendance line before 8:30 AM and leave a message.

You can call day or night.

Student Absence

In the event your child will be tardy or absent, you need to notify the school by 8:30 AM, even if you have notified the teacher.

Please call the attendance office at your child’s school to report the absence.

Clearly state:

-Child’s first and last name

-Grade

-Classroom teacher

-Reason for absence

Voice mail is connected 24 hours a day so you can call anytime.

If an absence is not reported, we will contact you to ensure the safe whereabouts of your child. When a child fails to report to school and when there is no parent/guardian notification the police department must be notified.

If your child has been absent for 5 or more consecutive days a physician’s note should be presented upon returning to school.
